RYEBREAD project
manager Patrick Farmer designed this workers housing for a local tomato
farm. The project features pairs of corner double bedrooms, as to
maximize cross ventilation in this naturally conditioned building.
Support spaces include a kitchen, dining/parlor, laundry and a covered
breezeway for outdoor breaks. The gabled hip metal roof, vertical
siding, and double-hung windows make the structure fit into the
vernacular vocabulary of the farm. Radiant flooring is being considered
to maximize comfort and minimize energy use. This is a humane and
efficient project.
Previously, RYEBREAD has designed workers housing for a South Jersey
cranberry farm, and the design of this building benefits from lessons
learned from our experience. Our firm has numerous successful
agricultural and industrial structures in our portfolio.
